Re: What have you tinkered with today?
replacements are tapered - on an sk4, to be fair, mine have been on the way out for quite some time and were overdue a replacement!

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Tried out my re-upholstered seats today, well over 100 miles and not a trace of numb bum. Result!
I used Tony Archer and have to say that this is one of my favourite mods so far, well worth the money. |

This ^ and my R6 throttle tube, are my favourite easy mods

Quick action throttle.
. So you don't have to turn your wrist so uncomfortabley far for full throttle See. http://www.canyonchasers.net/shop/bike/r6-throttle.php

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Oh, right, thanks. I would prefer a non-linear throttle that starts gently and gets progressively more aggressive to avoid the snatch that I sometimes get.

So about 3/4 rotation to open it fully. The R6 tube opens it fully in just over a 1/4 turn, its nice and progressive and I don't notice any snatchiness when I use mine. You might find it improves this issue you have, as you need to turn the standard one too far before it starts affecting the throttles? Its only a tenner, and worth a try IMHO

@Bibio - Would it help if I posted a picture of mine? It's nice and comfy.
